Glamming it Up… or Down?

Well, another awards season just came and went, and as always I can’t shut up about it.

There were some amazing dresses and some not so good. Here are my favorites.

The winner for me was Cate Blachett for the Golden Globes dressed in Armani Privé. She looked so regal in this gown and young.

Second, comes Taylor Swift in the Alberta Ferretti dress she wore for her performance at the Grammys. Personally, I liked this dress a lot better than the one she wore for the red carpet and show, but I would have preferred she kept the ponytail. It was adorable and very chic.

Then comes Olivia Wilde in Gucci and Ciara in Emilio Pucci. These pregnant ladies are the best I’ve seen dressed for a show in a LONG time. They killed it. They’re absolutely glowing!

My last two favorites are Kate Beckinsale in Zuhair Murad (!!!) and Lupita Nyong’o in Gucci. The gray dress on Kate showed off her curves and her hair and makeup were flawless. It’s Zuhair Murad. Enough said.
Lupita’s dress against her skin color looks absolutely AMAZING. There are no words. This Gucci dress was tailored to perfection and she kept it simple with the accesories. Love!

Now, for my not-so-favorites:

I’m a fan of animal print. I’m not scared to mix it up a bit, but the dress on Robin Thicke’s wife Paula Patton? No. Just look at the lions on her collarbones.

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior. It looks like she took her bedsheets, wrapped them around her body and strapped 2 belts on top of it. And the dark lip color threw me off even more. Not her best look. Come to think of it, I didn’t like her sequin Dior dress for the SAG awards either. I hope she does better for the Oscars next month.

Katy Perry in Valentino. I know it’s couture but I don’t like it. I think it’s the hair.
